MYTH:
"It is easy
for children to
stop the sexual
assaults from
happening."

FACT:
It is very difficult for
any child or adolescent to stop
assaults from happening.
Children are taught to be
respectful and obey adults or
older people. So to say
"NO" to an adult, or someone
older than you, is very difficult
to do. Also, children are often
tricked, bribed or threatened
by the offender.
